Le Corbusier designed home, Weißenhofsiedlung, Stuttgart 1927.
One of the greatest singles ever made. It has it all - sweeping strings, tragic sentiment (‘Little girl, please don’t wait for me…wait patiently for love’) and glorious refrain (‘I’m just a fool…’). An album track until Tony Blackburn hammered it on Radio 1, taking it to the top of the charts. Gold.

From a time before I knew you could download a video from YouTube, so this is filmed off a screen and then re-edited #glorydays

#NowPlaying A great four album run (67-70). Misunderstood and hugely undervalued were the Turtles. Terrific songwriting, unashamedly ‘pop’, but beautifully nuanced arrangements, playing, harmonies, and always life-affirming.

Always loved this pic - everyone moving in a different direction like it’s been put together using one of those rub-on transfer sets from the early 70s.

Tish's photos are so extraordinary. Every time I see them, they strike me afresh. The composition, the detail, the humanity she captures. What a talent she was.
